The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Connection Identifiers for DTLS 1.2' (draft-ietf-tls-dtls-connection-id-13.txt) as Proposed Standard
This document is the product of the Transport Layer Security Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Benjamin Kaduk and Roman Danyliw. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-tls-dtls-connection-id/ Technical Summary This document specifies the Connection ID (CID) construct for the Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) protocol version 1.2. A CID is an identifier carried in the record layer header that gives the recipient additional information for selecting the appropriate security association. In "classical" DTLS, selecting a security association of an incoming DTLS record is accomplished with the help of the 5-tuple. If the source IP address and/or source port changes during the lifetime of an ongoing DTLS session then the receiver will be unable to locate the correct security context. An explicit CID allows for the DTLS association to persist across such address/port changes. Working Group Summary The document is of interest to a subset of the working group participants. The participants are active and there is general working group consensus behind the document. Document Quality The document has been reviewed by people implementing the protocol. There are multiple implementations of this an earlier version of extension, and the current version has also been implemented. Personnel The Document Shepherd is Joseph Salowey and the responsible AD is Ben Kaduk _______________________________________________ TLS mailing list TLS@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/tls
